Post-Purchase: Generating a CSR and Validating Ownership
To issue your certificate, the Certificate Authority (CA) needs a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from your server.
How to Generate a CSR in cPanel:
- Log in to cPanel and go to SSL/TLS Manager.
- Click Certificate Signing Requests (CSR).
- Fill in your details (ensure the "Country" and "State" match your business registration).
- Copy the long block of text (starting with
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----) and paste it into the activation form in your Jiinubi Client Area.
Domain Control Validation (DCV)
You must prove you own the domain. Choose one of the following methods:
- Email: An approval link is sent to info@yourdomain.com.
- DNS: Add a specific TXT/CNAME record provided by the CA to your DNS settings.
- HTTP File: Upload a small
.txtfile to a specific folder on your server.
